Young Grizzly

We found a Grizzly with two cubs - this is the smallest (and most photogenic) of this pair. We watched them as the light failed and they moved up the inlet away from us. At one point the adult female rolled on her back in the long grass.

The next morning we saw these three again - on the other side of the inlet so were able to get more pictures of the family. I will upload those next.

There is something unusual about these bears. The black parts are not a 'normal' occurance. I once saw a bi-coloured bear and he was a very dangerous animal. Kind of a rogue. Showed very aggressive mean behaviour and had colouring similar to a German shepherd. These could be cropped a little, but certainly a beauty of a bear image. TG

Perhaps I should explain that the bears look black becuase they have just emerged from the water. The lighter face fur is because they are cubs. I have cropped it already as was taken with a 300mm lens from a zodiac that wasn't that close (needed to give the family some space).
